I did read Blindsight and I do think that the self is a story that the mind is constantly creating which narrates and explains things but disagree that it is a waste of brainpower since it is the only thing that can give value to things. That other 'unconscious self' just sees things by what they really are and not what they mean, it has a theoretical understanding of what things are important to the 'conscious self' but it doesn't really understand why. In that 'life and death' flow state when playing that CS match I took out the whole team in the most incredible game I ever played but I remember how I felt as it happened. It was bored and it did not see the point of a game where you just dragged your mouse over and clicked on the pictures, its not like you could ever miss so what was the point of playing it?.
